Plastic pollution is a big problem for sea animals. It can cause them to eat plastic or get tangled in it.

For example, sea turtles often think plastic bags are jellyfish, which they like to eat. Fish and birds can also swallow tiny bits of plastic, known as microplastics. This can make them sick over time.

Here are some ideas to help solve this problem:

1. Reduce: Use fewer plastic items that are meant to be thrown away after one use.
2. Reuse: Choose materials that can break down naturally instead of plastic.
3. Recycle: Support local recycling programs in your community.
4. Clean Up: Join or organize beach clean-up events.

If we all work together and take these steps, we can help make the oceans healthier and protect the animals that live there!
